SWUNG FROM A KNOB.
D. w. Burnham's Singular Snicide
by Strangulation.

D. w. Burnham's Singular Snicide
by Strangulation.
Ozro W. Burnham took a singular
fashion to suicide. yesterday morning.
Moving an arm chair close to a door, he
sat down upon it and tied a silk hand
kerchief closely about his neck. At
taching the ends firmly to the door-knob,
he slid off the chair and slowly
strangulated. Why he did it is only
surmise, and there is little of
that. He was a civil engineer
of fine capacity and plenty of
business. a short time ago he sold an
interest to James Gunner and they
opened an office i'll the White block, 1O7
Central venue When Mr.. Gunner
went to the Office yesterday morning he
could not open the door, and went to
procure some means of forcing it. This
he eventually did, and in the meantime
a police officer broke through another
door, revealing the CHASTITY spectacle of
the corpse hanging by the knob. The
body was cold, and death must have oc-
CURED some hours before.
Mr.. Burnham came here from Fargo.
where he was formerly county engineer,
and where his brother is president of a
bank. He was of good habits and the
only theory of the suicide is that of
mental distress brought on by hard
work. Coroner Hill will PROBABLY hold
an inquest to-day, after which the body
will be semi to Fargo.

A WOMAN THIS TIME.
Mrs. Nj. ID. Ellis Tried For Keep
ing a "BIind Pig

Mrs. M. ID. Ellis, a rather pleasant
and at the same time sharp-looking
woman, was arraigned yesterday on a
charge of selling liquor without a Ii
cense. She runs a confectionery store
at 252 Sixth avenue south, and, it is
alleged, has been in the habit of selling
bottled beer to some of her customers.
Patrolman Warner, who had been de-
tailed by License Inspector Ray to look
up the case, was the prosecuting wit
ness. He swore that he went to the
store dressed in citizens clothes. and.
calling for beer, received it and drank
it. Mrs. Ellis denied that she had ever
sold any beer to any one, but admitted
that she kept it in the place for her own
use. She objected to the close ques-
tloning of County Attorney Davis, and
several times raised a laugh by her
sharp answers. The case was given to
the jury at 3 o'clock. and inside of two
hours a verdict of guilty was returned.
The woman vas Immediately arraigned
on two more indictments, pleaded not
guilty. and gave bonds to d Oct.
10. There are still a number of indict-
ments against her upon which she has
not been arraigned.

GIVEN A CHANCE.
A Mill Employe Detected in Crime
and Kept at Work.

81 would have implicitly trusted him
with the combination of the safe," said
a prominent mill owner, speaking of a
man who had long been i'll his employ.
1t is a case of blind confidence in an
emplOye, who turned out faithless and
dishonest. The man had an important
position in the mill and his de-
partment was never investigated.
1t finally occurred to the head miller
that the mill was paying more for flour
by the barrel than the others, and he
determined to investigate. A man was
put on watch and soon discovered that
wheat was being systematically stolen
and sold by the suspected employe. who
when confronted with the facts admitted
their correctness. An estimate of the
shortage vas made and the
amount paid over to the miller
by friends of the employee. Out of re-
spect to the mans family and relatives.
and upon satisfactory evidence of his
repentance, the affair has been over
looked, and, though arrested, the en-
plOye was set at liberty and even re-
tanned in the service of the mill. His
name will be spared, and he will proba-
bly, redeem his sin. At all events. he
will be given every opportunity.

A PEARL CAST AWAY.
Courtesy that a Colored Woman
Did Not APPRECIATE.

Did Not Appreciate.
On III OF the University avenue cars
which came from the East side about 10
o'clock last night was enacted a scene
which would have caused Col. Thomas
Lowry to look on in amazement, could
he have been a witness. AS the car
passed the Exposition a number of
ladies got on. Among the party was a
colored woman, gigantic in size and
ugly in face. A gentleman arose as the
party came in, and touching the cOlored
woman Oh the arm offered her his seat,
at the same time walking toward the
rear platform. The woman gaZed at
him a moment. took the seat, and then
broke out with the most frightful Ian
guage and vile curses toward the man
who had given her his seat. After abus-
ing him for insulting her to her hearts
content, she turned her attention to the
ladies and swOre at all of them in a
manner that would have done credit to
the driver of a mule team. The con-
ductor and driver both heard the loud
language, yet neither made any attempt
to stop it or make the woman leave the
car.

AN OILY CASE.
The Matter ofOil Inspection to Go
to a Higher Court.

The Matter ofOiI Inspection to Go
to a Higher Court.
Hal Finch, a clerk in the grocery store
of ii. J. Dahn & Co., SIS Washington
avenue north, was brought into the dis
trict court yesterday morning to answer
the charge preferred by State Oil In
spector H. B. Willis of selling unin-
spected oil. Ex-Attorney General
Hahn. who really represents the North
western Star Oil company, appeared for
Finch. The case is a decidedly inter-
esting II inasmuch as the whole
thing hinges on the construction OF the
oil inspection law. The facts in the
case are, that the Northwestern Star Oil
company has been importing oil into the
city in large tanks, and, after having it
inspected, distributing it to the retail
inspection. The oil inspector claimed
that this was not covering the require
mentS of the law; that the law in
tended that the oil should be again in
spected after being placed in the gro
ceryman'S tank. The defense attempted
TO show that the Oil had been inspected
i'll the original package i'll which it was
brought into the state. County Attor-
ney Davis objected to this testimony as
irrelevant and immaterial. When Judge
Young anne to decide upon the objec-
ton. he said that he was inclined to
%overrule the objection. In his opinion
the law merely prescribed that oil
should be inspected in the packages in
which it originally came into the state,
but, in a similar case, Judge Lochren
had decided differently. He would like
to see the matter decided by the su-
preme court. He then instructed the
jury to find Finch guilty. as charged in
the Indictment, ond certified the case to
the supreme court, where the matter
will be settled once for all as to how
many times Oil must be inspected.

In a moment she was a mass of flame

she ran through the pawn shop

met by Officer McAlpin. With ready
thought he stripped off his heavy over
